New RAM and peripherals
There's a lot going on at Computex, and kicking off our coverage is a visit to G.Skill's booth. It's there that we caught a glimpse of the company's new Ripjaws 4 Series DDR4 memory clocked at 3800MHz running in an ASRock Fatal1ty X99M Killer motherboard alongside an Intel Core i7 5960X CPU.
G.Skill showed off both its 4GB and 16GB modules, the latter of which can sport up to 64GB in pairs or four, or a whopping 128GB when filling all eight slots in a motherboard. As we've mentioned in the past, that's overkill for gaming, but if you're into heavy content creation or other workstation-level chores, having an abundance of RAM can be useful.
We also saw a Trident Z Series that G.Skill is designing specifically for Intel's forthcoming Skylake CPUs. G.Skill expects to release its Trident Z kit in August. Have a look:
After we were done ogling G.Skill's RAM, we made our way over to the company's peripherals. On the audio side, G.Skill announced a pair of Ripjaws headphones, the SR910 with 7.1 surround sound through 10 discrete drivers, and the SV710 with virtual 7.1 surround sound powered by Dolby Pro Logic IIx through dual 50mm drivers.
G.Skill also jumped on the mechanical keyboard bandwagon with the Ripjaws KM780 RGB and KM780 MX. Both come with Cherry MX Red or Brown keys, have dedicated macro keys, and feature an aggressive looking design. The difference between the two comes down to the backlight -- the RGB gives users millions of colors to play with, while the MX boasts a red backlight.
Lastly G.Skill showed off its new MX780 RGB gaming mouse. It has a cyborg look to it and is ambidextrous with a height-adjustable palm rest and interchangeable palm grips.
